3 Words to Describe You: Quick-witted, empathetic, outgoing
Why do you want to be part of Survivor?: Since watching, I knew I wanted to be on Survivor. Very few opportunities in life let you connect to life in such a raw and authentic way. It’s everything I love! New friends and the outdoors.
What’s one life experience you feel has prepared you for the game?: Doing Boy Scouts as a kid (yes, Boy Scouts) exposed me early on to outdoors and survival skills.
Which previous player do you identify with the most? Who do you think you will play most like?: Kenzie is a firecracker and played a social game close to her heart, yet still strategic. I hope to play similar to her.
What will you value in an alliance partner?: PLEASE someone that won’t stab me in the back (well, first at least!).
Favorite hobbies: Spending time with loved ones whatever it may be like exploring the world, running a marathon on a whim, or making insultingly low trades in Catan.
Pet Peeves: Anything that seems unfair, fake people – yuck!, People who can’t separate your versus you’re.
What is the accomplishment you are most proud of?: During Covid, when everything was closed and everyone was isolating, I made a new friend who after a year wrote me, “You taught me what being happy truly means.”
What is something we would never know from looking at you?: I am a back-to-back all-around intramural champ.
Who in your life is your biggest inspiration and why?: My mom and dad! (I’m smart enough to not choose favorites!). Truly both though. No one lives life as generously as my mom and boldly like my dad – they are my rocks, role models, best friends.
Why will you be the Sole Survivor?: Coming in at 5 feet strong, I will be LURKING incognito-ly until it’s time to strike.
